2013, Computers in Biology and MedicineCitation Excerpt :Excimer lasers at ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths, which are well-absorbed by collagen, are being used in vision correction surgeries such as laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). A typical example of an Excimer laser used in LASIK surgery emits 193 nm wavelength, and works at approximately 20 ns pulse duration, 100–250 mJ/cm2 radiant exposure, with a beam 100 μm in diameter [16]. The dynamic changes in the optical properties of water at 193 nm (ArF excimer) and 2940 nm (Er:YAG) are well established [17–19].
